request message (WKGRRE) to be used in Electronic Data
Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in
administration, commerce and transport.
1. SCOPE
1.1 Functional Definition
A message specifying details of requests to a governmental
authority from an employer for workers who need a work grant or
permit.
1.2 Field of Application
The Work grant request message may be used for both national
and international trade. It is based on universal commercial
practice and is not dependent on the type of business or
industry.
1.3 Principles
The message is to provide detailed information of one or more
requests.
A Work grant request message is transmitted from an employer to
a governmental agency.
A Work grant request message may contain requested detailed
information about a person (i.e: the address, the profession,
the location of the job and the remuneration).
A Work grant request message may also be used for a
modification or an extension of an existing work grant request.

4. MESSAGE DEFINITION
4.1 Data Segment Clarification
This section should be read in conjunction with the Branching
Diagram and the Segment Table which indicate mandatory,
conditional and repeating requirements.
The following guidelines and principles apply to the whole
message and are intended to facilitate the understanding and
implementation of the message:
All specified dates and times should be in the format 'yymmdd'
or 'hhmm' unless all parties involved in the transaction agree
that there is a functional requirement for an alternative
format. Periods should be specified as whole numbers
representing the required period as indicated in the format
qualifier (weeks, months, etc.)
Where a choice of code or text is given only the code element
should be used wherever possible.
Conditional data that is not required in the message should not
be included.
Care must be taken that the segment qualifier in dependent
segments do not conflict with the segment qualifier of the
trigger segment of a group.
